Welcome to Stop & Listen - Homelessness Action Society

Over 17,000 people in the West Midlands don't have stable, secure accommodation but are instead living in temporary housing - that's one in every 348 people, the second highest regional rate in England.

Over 200 people in the region don't even have a roof over their heads.

To STOP & LISTEN means to not walk past the problem and to take action instead. 

We want to... 

• start a conversation with people facing homelessness to learn about their challenges 
• raise awareness on campus and beyond 
• educate ourselves on policy and possible solutions to end homelessness
• volunteer and support local charities

How you can get involved in this society: 

• Volunteer with us at local charities
• Attend our round-table discussions on homelessness policy and other social events to meet like-minded students and learn more about homelessness

We'll post sign-up forms to our volunteering sessions and events on our Instagram and WhatsApp a week in advance. Sign-ups for volunteering sessions are first-come-first-served - we'll message you with confirmation of your place. 

Check out our Instagram to see what events we've planned so far!
